Screening and Diagnosis
A highly trained chiropractor such as Dr. Blakely can evaluate the cause of the foot pain and see if its traumatic or repetitive. Once a thorough examinatin is complete, a fracture can be ruled out due to the sever dysfunction a fracture can cause. Dr. Blakely will most likely implement an x-ray of your feet as these can be the standard in evaluation conditions of the body.
Dr. Blakely will also administer functional tests to make appropriate modifications as needed. A thorough evaluation of your spine will also be completed to rull out referring pains into the legs from a spinal disalignment.
Plantar Fasciitis Treatment
If there is severe acute pain, resting for a few days will certainly help. In some cases a physican may prescribe medication to reduce inflammation. We also recommend custom orthotics to help reduce the strains of the tissue. Dr. Blakely will work to improve proper biomechanics of the foot and adjustments of the pelvis. He will also discuss various stretches thatn can help stabilize your core. Conservatively, with plantar fasciitis, treatment may take a few weeks or months before stabliziation is realized.
